Simply attach the standard 5 ' ' backing plate to run industry-standard 5.5 ' ' buffing pads and scrubbing brushes.

Built For Performance

Polisher backing plates connect your buffing and polishing pad to your machine polisher. Without a backing plate, you cannot use a machine to polish your paintwork, scrub carpets, or spread wax. Slap your favorite buffing pad onto the TORQ R5 Backing Plate and get to work polishing away swirls, scratches, and water spots from any car. The durable backing plate attaches to your machine polisher via the 5/16 ' ' - 24 spindle thread. Use the slim wrench that came with your DA polisher to hold the spindle, then screw the backing plate on until it fits snugly against the spindle. Make sure you keep the washer on the spindle to ensure proper clearance between the backing plate and machine housing for error-free polishing. The TORQ R5 backing plate uses high quality hook and loop material to hold onto buffing pads and accessories with a solid grip. Circulatory Cooling Air Channels funnel in fresh air to cool the backing plate, buffing pad, machine polisher, and work surface as the pad spins and works. This reduces wear and tear, and maximizes polish work time for finer results in less time. It 's no accident that detailers around the world love TORQ R5 backing plates: they 're designed to be perfect.

Built For Flexibility

TORQ R5 backing plates are designed to flex and conform to the surface. Traditional backing plates are too stiff to work through curves and contours. Ever try fitting a square peg in a round hole? It doesn 't work! Polishing in a curve with a stiff backing plate puts too much pressure on the edges of the pad, creating too much friction and heat that can leave a ring of marring marks and holograms in the paint. TORQ R5 backing plates with Hyper Flex technology conform to every curve and contour, filling the space more evenly with the whole pad for better polishing results. Choose from the whole TORQ R5 backing plate lineup for every polishing job, large or small, with any dual action, large-throw orbital, or rotary machine polisher.

Built For Endurance

Friction creates wear and tear. When polishing for extended periods of time, backing plates, machine polishers, and buffing pads wear out, melt, and break. TORQ R5 backing plates are formed with vents and cooling channels for proper ventilation while working. The spinning of the machine channels in fresh air to help cool the backing plate, buffing pad, and machine polisher. The extra airflow runs around, and through the backing plate, taking away excess heat that prematurely melts buffing pads and destroys backing plates. Less heat buildup also extends the worktime of polishes and compounds. Longer worktime means more even polish abrasive breakdown, more even polishing, and a finer finish in fewer passes. Save time, save equipment, and save money with the TORQ R5 backing plate lineup from TORQ Tools.
